Dana Mahogany (Mini Guitar)

I just bought the Mini and did not think I was going to get a small Guitar of this caliber ! I did the usual new guitar once over and thought the action was too high so I did a little truss rod and saddle adjustment and looked and thought dam I have it too low but I went with it anyway and Wow was I impressed this thing wants that action right where I have it and the intonation is perfect! The neck quality is dead on and makes the whole guitar come together!

I bought the Dana Mini and wholly enjoy the guitar. My single criticism is that there is some tuning instability with it. Mine periodically falls slightly out of tune after a few hours, especially overnight. I keep a tuner nearby and will tune it up each session, but it is a bit annoying. Overall though, fun guitar. And for 140 bucks, I really can’t complain about much. But just so future buyers are aware, be ready for some potential tuning stability issues.

This guitar was in excellent condition upon arrival, however the action was too high for me. 8/64 on low 6/64 on high end. Had to file down the bridge, but then good to go. Nice guitar.

If Orangewood can make a mini/travel guitar that sounds this good at this price point, the more expensive brands are in trouble!

Was looking for a smaller guitar to use for practice. The Dana mini is the perfect size, very portable, and not susceptible to changing with the weather, so it works great both indoors and outdoors. Has an amazingly full sound for a small body guitar, beautiful mahogany finish, and had a great setup which made it incredibly easy to play out of the box. Have not been able to put it down since I’ve gotten it. Paired with a sturdy padded gig bag, it’s an outstanding value. Will definitely buy more from Orangewood in the future!
